I'm loving the stories in this. It reminds me of The Laughing Salesman series.

So all in all I like the monkey paw-ish concept, and these typical "Korean horror" vibes are strong here. It hasn't quite followed the direction I expected (MC making a wish and facing the consequences, possibly sinking even lower in the process), but it's okay. He does look like a fussy bystander most of the times, but we might get there eventually.

I decided to put it under a spoiler just to be safe, but it's mostly me ranting about the flow of the story until chapter 7.

Buuuut, as of ch.7, we didn't even get one example of a person following all the rules and not screwing up, which kinda waters the concept down for me? Because so far it's not the "demon machine doing demon machine things", or "people can never know what they truly want".
It's just "nobody ever reads the freaking manual", and while it is undeniably true, it's a bit lackluster, given the setting.
